58cycle smoked LED taillights
04/29/11 3:26 AM

Just want everyone to know if you purchase an LED tailaight from 58cycle there is a possibility that you get a bad wired light. I installed mine the other day and it didnt turn on. Istarted diagnosing it and come to find out the wiring inside the light was mixed up. The left prong being the ground, middle is the running light and right being the brake. The harness has a black(ground) blue(running) and red(brake). The prongs on the light itself were switched the brake and running light were backwards. All you have to do is cut your running and brake wire on the harness and switch them to make it work. Not sure if I just got a runt light that someone made a mistake building or if all thier lights from that distributor are like that. Oh almost forgot the harness is upside down also so plug it in opposite the way its suppossed to. It was the smoked set so if anyone has anymore problems let me know and I can post some pics.

I think that is where I got mine as well. My sigs didn't even have the right connector on them!!!! I think they just came in clear plastic bags so the actual manufacturer of the lights cannot be implicated, unfortunately.

Oh, wait, sorry you were talking about tail lights. Well, I've found that aftermarket lighting is usually made very cheaply anywhere it comes from. I would think that your tail light is made by the same company as my tail light but I purchased mine through Amazon.com. Was the packaging marked with a company? I think mine said Volaire or something close to that. Regardless they are prolly all made in sweatshops somewhere in Korea I imagine.

I order my smoke set from 58cycle a few years back. The only problem I had was the front "Euro Style" smoked turn signals had the wrong plug on them. I cut and soldered in the stock ones and it worked just fine.

The light from Volar Motorsports is very poorly made and I sent mine back. My Clear Alternatives signals and taillight were pretty well made and had a lifetime waranty till they went out of business last year. Someone has suposedlybought the tooling and going to reopen under another name.
